Hey Guys!
Long time no see. I conducted a written quiz at my college (SBMJC VV Puram). 62 guys took part and the whole thing was pretty grand. If you want to give it a crack, you can do so... Here's the question paper:

TIME - Contentment!

I have this thing with time. Having a rough idea of the time always gives me a sense of being and contentment. I am writing this article because just about 15 minutes back, my internal clock had gone haywire. I just finished watching a movie - The Weather Man, Nicholas Cage[3.5 on 5 by the way]. My internal clock said hmm... 11:30 A.M. It was 01:15. It shatters you. Where the bloody hell did the 150 minutes go? It was just not fair. When i lose track of time, it feels like I've been cryogenically frozen and then I wake up one day after some 100 years.

Have you experienced this? The next time you guess the time 2 hours off the real time, think about my article... you'll know what I mean.

Let's wrap this up with an incident from my childhood.
We were on a holiday... some damned hill station. I was 5 i guess... maybe 7.
I slept early that cold evening. Woke up at about 4 in the morning.
The first thing i asked my mum was "Is today Yesterday or is it Tomorrow?"
That's how lost i felt without a sense of time.
Time = Contentment. It's true! The simple joys of life!

Watery Truths of Nature.

Hello Children,

After laying off all technological contacts for 20 days, and meditating under the Jog falls for over 420 Hours (with Metallica banging in my ears for X-TRA Effect), I, like many other wisened men, have learnt the truth about life. And that truth, dear children is this:

1. Waterfalls give good head massages.

2. Listening to your MP3 player under several thousand litres of water blows up your MP3 player.

3. Sitting under the falls for 420 hours gives you a range of problems from pneumonia to headache to vertigo to nausea.

4.I miss my MP3 player. Silent stand to that please.

5. It is cool to show off with a super fast Barracuda dive into a waterfall.

6. Point 5 applies only as long as you DO NOT have a cell phone in your pocket.

7. Mistaking the Ganga to be a city sewer is a pardonable sin.

8. Not adviseable to come back after such a crack trip and write something on your Blog page. Ahmen.
